Borderlands is an upcoming American science fiction action comedy film directed by Eli Roth, who co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Crombie, based on the video game series of the same name developed by Gearbox Software. Produced by Media Capital Technologies, Arad Productions, Picturestart, Gearbox Studios and 2K, and distributed by Lionsgate, it stars an ensemble cast featuring Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, Edgar Ramírez, Ariana Greenblatt, Bobby Lee, Florian Munteanu, Gina Gershon, and Jamie Lee Curtis, and follows Lillith (played by Blanchett), an infamous outlaw who returns to the place where she grew up, the chaotic planet Pandora, and forms an unexpected alliance with a team of misfits to find the missing daughter of the most powerful man in the universe.[2]
A film adaptation of the video game series was announced in August 2015, with Lionsgate developing the project with Ari and Avi Arad of Arad Productions producing, and Leigh Whannell was in talks to direct it. By February 2020, Roth was attached to direct the film from a screenplay written by Craig Mazin, with Feig joining as producer through his production company Picturestart. Casting occurred from May 2020 to March 2021, with Blanchett joining the cast, while Hart, Black, and Curtis were added in the following year. Principal photography began in April 2021 in Budapest, Hungary, during the COVID-19 pandemic, and wrapped in June that same year. However, some reshoots were made in two weeks, without Roth's involvement due to his commitments to Thanksgiving, and were directed by Tim Miller.[3]
Borderlands is set to be released in the United States on August 9, 2024, by Lionsgate.
